A simple remedy for stomachache.   When you eat food that weighs you down, sometimes you feel a slight pain in the abdomen. At first it is somewhat tolerable, but with the passage of time the pain increases and you can no longer even move and you place yourself in a "bolita" position.

The toxicity of pufferfish is comparable to that of cyanide or strychnine. Tetradotoxin is found mainly in the liver, ovaries and skin of fish - it varies by species within the family - even after boiling, so its preparation is highly complex and dangerous. The only way to cook it is by carefully extracting these organs and, in the case of the skin, with great care and for specific parts of the animal so that it does not contaminate the meat. Legend has it that puffer fish was banned in Japan between the 17th and 18th centuries because many people died from eating it at home. Finally, the government of Japan decided to legalize it as long as its capture, consumption and sale were governed by strict regulations. To cook it in Japan you must have a special permit. But, if it is so dangerous, why i...

It is one of the most exclusive races in the world since logistics in the area limits the number of participants to a total of 250. The terrain is mountainous until the end, with the steepest ascents being the climb that comes out of the ice sheet and the climb of approximately 75 meters high that is 5 km before the finish line. Marathoners often come across oxen, reindeer and other animals that inhabit the Arctic desert and due to the danger of falling into a crevasse, runners are strictly prohibited from leaving the route marked on the ice sheet. An international team of doctors and nurses is available before, during and after the marathon. The race takes place every year, at the end of October. Starting at 8:30 am and takes place in Kangerlussuaq, a town in Greenland. The Polar Circle Marathon has been or...
